To disassemb1e Undo the four fixing screws under the case of the main unit. Lift the top part, containing the keyboard, carefully from the back. The keyboard connector may now be removed from the printed circuit board by gently rocking the connector on the pcb to the left and the right. The keyboard unit may itself be removed from the upper part of the case, by undoing the six mounting screws. The speaker may be disconnected from the main pcb by removing the connector from PLl. To remove the main printed circuit board, undo the five fixing screws, remove the expansion connector cover, and gently lift the circuit board from the left (or West) end. If it is necessary to remove the speaker, lift it straight out of its mounting area. To reassemb1e Replace the main printed circuit board by putting the right hand edge (with expansion connector) in first and pushing it gently until the board drops into the case lower. Replace the five PCB fixing screws and the expansion connector cover. If the speaker has been removed from the case lower, it should be replaced by gently pushing it home. The loudspeaker should be connected to PLl. If the keyboard has been removed from the case upper, it should be remounted, using the six screws previously removed. Reconnect the keyboard to the main PCB by pushing the connector onto the pins. Ensure that all the pins are correctly engaged. Replace the case upper on the lower part, ensuring that you do not trap the keyboard connector, and replace the four fixing screws.

  • Wakefield 2006 RISC OS Computer Show
    I would like to welcome you all to this, our eleventh annual show in Wakefield. There have been many ups and downs over the last eleven years, since the first show at Cedar Court, organised in thirteen weeks, which ended up taking over the entire hotel. Ever since then, we have been at our current venue of Thornes Park. Over the years we have had many interesting attractions and features, such as the guest appearance by Johnny Ball one year. Of course, the show has seen many new hardware and software launches and previews over the years, some more successful then others: Kinetic, Peanut, Phoebe, StrongARM, Vantage, RiScript and so on. In fact, this year it is ten full years since we saw the very first StrongARM at the first Wakefield Show, as well as being the 25th Anniversary of the BBC Micro! Even now, we still have people developing for this famous microcomputer, which helped to start the home computer revolution. Be sure to visit both the JGH BBC Software and Domesday System stands during your visit. The Domesday Project is another superb example of how advanced we were with the BBC Master and other Acorn products of the 1980s. Now we are looking to the future with the new A9home, which is expected to be on retail sale or available for ordering at the show. Over the years we have had visitors to the show from all over the world, from countries such as New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Belgium, Finland, Sweden and the USA; not bad for an amateur show! Another long-standing attraction of the show is of course the charity stall, which allows redundant equipment to be recycled, and through your kind support the stall has raised many thousands of pounds, primarily for the Wakefield Hospice, over the years.

  • Archimedes PC Emulator
    Archimedes PC Emulator PC emulators are not new, but so far they have had limited success in their job of enabling your chosen micro to run PC-compatible software. Simon Jones unveils Acorns PC Emulator package for the Archimedes range of micros to see how well it performs in action. At this years PCW Show, Acorn proudly displayed its PC Emulator package for the Archimedes range of computers, which is claimed to allow packages written for the IBM PC to run on an Archimedes. Acorn was demonstrating the Emulator running dBase III+ and Lotus 1-2-3 at the show and, as I only managed a quick glance at the Emulator then, I was pleased to get the opportunity to examine the product at close quarters. Having seen other attempts at PC compatibility, such as pc-ditto (reviewed in PCW, October) I was sceptical to say the least. The Archimedes carries on the Acorn tradition, having a lot in common with the BBC Micro and the BBC Master series. Indeed, the Archimedes will run most of the well-behaved software written for the BBC computers. However, the Archimedes and the BBC micros differ radically in the CPU they use and the amount of RAM available. Based on Acorns RISC processor, the Archimedes 440 is blindingly fast and, with 4Mbytes of memory, it is not short functions to those in MS-DOS. This is cellaneous keys between the main of space — a problem which caused the more than a little confusing if you are group and the numerics. The back- downfall of the BBC Micros.

This operating system has a very fast and flexible response to Interrupts, which allows the machine to take a wide range of peripherals and handle them with ease. The TUBE is a fast bus interface through which additional Co-processors (also called second processors) can be added. when a co-processor is connected to the TUBE interface, the BBC Micro continues to look after all of the I/O processing, whilst the additional co-processor now carries out the task of running the Language Application. The Co-Processor The co-processor can be based on any microprocessor chip, and can have any memory size that this chip can address.

The proliferation of affordable and relatively powerful computers changed the landscape of computing across the globe. This chapter looks at the introduction of one machine, the BBC Microcomputer, and its influence on the culture of computing in Britain.
